Festival co-organiser Catherine Jackson-Smith feedback:
“I’m undecided I can cover my delight at Dirty Loops returning to RADAR Festival. Musically, after we booked them in 2022, it was a defining second for RADAR Festival, signalling that we had been ready to push boundaries. I gained’t ever deny they’re one in every of my favorite bands so I can’t wait to see them in our beautiful new venue for a good greater get together!
“It’s never easy is it?! We’ve been booking bands right up to the last moment of this announcement, some didn’t make it and we’ll be following up with more bands soon! I know people will be blown away with what we’ve booked, it’s worth waiting for!”
